Evolution from Carp to Divine Dragon - Chapter 201

Chapter 201: Comprehensive Enhancement!

TL: Etude

“Right, there’s also the completed tasks!”

Normal task: Devour one thousand mutant creatures 1000/1000
Normal task: Devour one hundred ribbonfish 100/100
Normal task: Devour one thousand starfish 1000/1000

As Lin Hao willed it, the system’s task panel appeared before his eyes.

Three of the tasks had turned gold, indicating that they were completed.

“First, I’ll claim the task rewards, then start hiding to evolve.”

With a thought, Lin Hao began to claim the task rewards!

He first claimed the rewards for devouring one thousand mutant creatures and one thousand starfish. The rewards for these two tasks both enhanced his corneal defense.

Currently, his entire body was covered with extremely hard Dark Iron Thorn Scales, which could easily withstand bullets.

However, his eyes were still a relatively weak area.

If the corneal defense could also become as strong as his Dark Iron Thorn Scales, that would be fantastic!

At this moment, as he claimed the two task rewards, two orbs of light directly covered Lin Hao’s eyes.

In an instant, a distinct cool sensation spread through his eyes.

This feeling, however, quickly disappeared.

“Is it over just like that? I wonder how much stronger my corneal defense has become. It should be able to withstand bullets now, right?” Lin Hao pondered silently.

“There’s still one more task reward.”

He willed it again and claimed the blue treasure chest, then immediately chose to open it!

As before, a large number of attributes spun around within the opened chest.

However, he didn’t have high expectations for a blue treasure chest.

After all, the probability of getting a purple attribute from a blue chest was very low, let alone pink or gold attributes.

Soon, the spinning attributes stopped.

“Super Oral Mucosa: Your oral mucosa’s toughness is enhanced, providing strong resistance.”

“Super Oral Mucosa?”

“This exists too.”

In the next moment, the attribute turned into a blue light that entered his mouth.

In a short period, it seemed like his entire oral mucosa had been strengthened!

“Is it over just like that?”

Lin Hao felt a strange coolness in his mouth, but this sensation didn’t last long and quickly vanished.

He subconsciously bit down, finding no significant change.

“Strengthening the oral mucosa is also useful. This way, when facing creatures with spikes, I can directly bite into them, right?”

Suddenly, he remembered how he struggled to bite into the mutant starfish with its many spikes. But if his oral mucosa became as tough as his scales, he could bite into anything, regardless of the spikes!

“This time, all my weak spots are armed!”

Although not an extremely useful attribute, it was still somewhat beneficial.

“These three tasks are now completed. By midnight, three new tasks should refresh.”

Following the system tasks to constantly complete and receive rewards was another method to enhance his overall combat power!

“Time to evolve.”

“This evolution might take a few days,” Lin Hao thought as he swam to another area of the pond, using his Super Camouflage ability to blend into the surrounding mud.

Evolve!

With the deduction of 900,000 evolution points from his panel, he began to fall asleep almost instantly, entering an evolutionary state within moments!

“Big news! Large quantities of green crabs have appeared in Longyin City’s mangroves, and it’s suspected that online influencers Dragon Brother and Big B were eaten by the crabs!”

“Holy shit! Did you see yesterday’s live stream? Those crabs were insane and bit people like crazy!”

“My God, could it be that some countries are discharging too much radioactive waste, causing marine life to mutate completely?”

The next day, the internet was flooded with discussions about what had happened the previous day.

During Dragon Brother and Big B’s live stream, they had clearly seen large numbers of green crabs, which bit people and surrounded Dragon Brother and his crew!

It was like watching a disaster movie!

“What are you guys talking about? I went to the mangroves and saw nothing!”

“And I heard Dragon Brother and Big B will be live streaming again tonight!”

“Damn, could it be special effects? Are these guys making a movie instead of live streaming?”

By noon, the situation started to reverse!

Dragon Brother and Big B both posted messages saying they were fine and would be live streaming that night.

Although many people found yesterday’s event terrifying, they were excited at the sight of so many green crabs!

With the current high price of green crabs, reaching four hundred per pound, and other seafood prices also skyrocketing, it seemed like seafood was on the verge of extinction.

Most people couldn’t afford it anymore.

“Mr. Zhang, shouldn’t we block related comments and videos?”

Meanwhile, in the Longyin Research Center’s meeting room, a middle-aged man looked at Zhang Tiansheng and couldn’t help but speak up.

The discussion online was growing, creating a public opinion storm. Many demanded an explanation from the Longyin government.

“If panic spreads, it could be problematic…” The middle-aged man voiced his concern.

The reason for not publicizing these mutant creatures was to avoid mass panic and societal chaos.

Especially for those with criminal tendencies, this could fuel their urges!

“Don’t worry, the higher-ups have decided we can gradually ease up now,” Zhang Tiansheng said seriously.

This incident served as an opportunity to let people slowly accept the changes.

“Even with the mutant plants in Dragon Mountain, we didn’t enforce a blockade initially to let people gradually accept it. Only when mutant creatures appeared did we have to lock down the area.” Zhang Tiansheng continued.

“Understood.” The middle-aged man nodded.

Since the higher-ups agreed, he relaxed a bit.

“The next half month is crucial.” Zhang Tiansheng’s expression turned solemn.

In about half a month, Longyin City would be engulfed in chaos!

On that very day, another violent tremor occurred on the mountain opposite Dragon Mountain.

Boom!
